This report covers the Springboro Community School district single family homes (so portions of surrounding townships will be included e.g. Clearcreek & Turtlecreek). This report will only cover single family homes and not include condominium data. Data is derived from the Dayton MLS only, so homes sold without Dayton MLS entry will NOT be included in this review.

The Springboro area is popular, especially with residents seeking to commute into Dayton (easy access with I75 and SR741), and even works well for those not minding a bit longer commute south to the Cincinnati area. Springboro is a good choice for couples where one works in Dayton and the other in Cincinnati.

Springboro Community Schools are among the state's best public schools per the Ohio Department of Education ratings. Additionally Springboro was selected #42 in U.S. in 2011 by Money magazine for Best Small Cities To Live and probably would have made the 2013 & 2015 lists, but Money magazine changed the rules to only one town per county and Mason got the nod.

Keep in mind that some homes may only be listed in the Cincinnati MLS and will not be included in this report. We STRONGLY recommend any Springboro resident selling their home hire a REALTOR(R) with access to BOTH Cincinnati and Dayton MLS.

So, on to the review!

First up is the number of Springboro single family homes sold on a month by month basis starting in 2013 and carrying forward to present: Next is the Springboro median price summary chart.

Homes Active/Pending 5/24/2019: 37 (UP 4) more that have a contingency in place (e.g. a home to sell, inspections still to be performed, etc.)

Average Sales/List %: 98.5 UP .5%

Most Expensive Home Sold: $649,900

Least Expensive Home Sold: $113,900

So what does this all mean? There are some key takeaways:

While home sales are up vs. March, they're actually down compared to recent Aprils. The good news? Prices are still VERY good and the market is more balanced than many area communities.

There are still plenty of homes under contract (Pending) and Active/Pending.

New construction accounts for 3 of the 79 homes not under contract.

13 of the 46 sales were $400,000 or greater, and of those 13 8 of them were above $500,000.

Time to sell is still approximately 2 months.

Distressed properties are still rare, accounting for none of the homes for sale and none of the homes sold.

Don't expect huge discounts from asking price. 98.5% sold to list price indicates a LITTLE negotiation, but not much.

Bottom line: Springboro CONTINUES to be one of your best choices for buying a home in the Cincinnati/Dayton corridor but act fast for the best of the best homes.

So what does this mean to you as a Springboro single family home owner?

No change from last month. It's time to get out of the gate. With the Spring market arrival, the longer you wait, the more competition to expect. Since there is still a shortage of homes for sale, it's to your advantage to enter the market while there is less competition. What doesn't change? The need to be priced right coupled with solid marketing so the maximum buyer pool has visibility to your home. Buyers are out there and Springboro is still high demand, with great market stability and distressed properties having almost no impact. Need a real estate team to help put it all together?
